Stone Broken finally back on the road

Midlands-based quartet Stone Broken, one of the burgeoning New Wave of Classic Rock’s leading lights, are to release their delayed third album ‘Revelation’ tomorrow, April 22nd.

Stone Broken also began a UK tour last night (April 20th) at Glasgow Garage – the dates run until Wednesday May 4th when the jaunt concludes at Chalk in Brighton. Fellow NWOCR heroes Mason Hill will support at all the forthcoming shows, with The Fallen State opening the bill. Getting back on the road will be a huge relief to Stone Broken, who have seen not only album release dates, but entire tours and festivals postponed or cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Since January 2020 the band has only played a handful of audience attended shows, the most recent of which was a rapturously received appearance at Planet Rockstock last November in Porthcawl, Wales.

Perhaps as a result of its long gestation, ‘Revelation’ finds Stone Broken adding fresh colours to their music, but without abandoning their signature sound. Having partnered with award-winning producer and SikTh guitarist Dan Weller (Enter Shikari, Bury Tomorrow) back in early 2019, both artist and producer “hit it off from the get-go”. Working remotely during lockdown, the band experimented with aspects of electronic sounds, fusing strands of their more straight-ahead hard rock with darker electro elements.

Watch the video for 'Revelation' by Stone Broken:

“We had a completely different approach on this record,” frontman Rich Moss explains. “We wanted to build our sound from the ground up, but without losing what we already had. It wasn’t easy, but we managed to break down a few walls to get there, and along the way had some awesome discoveries, like Robyn (Haycock, drummer) having more vocal duties across the record. It really works well and brings a whole new dynamic to our songs”.
